sometimes seven hours
of makeup.
And it was 11 different appliances
that they glued to my face.
The bad part about it was
that as soon as they'd finished,
it was usually lunchtime
and l couldn't eat.
So they used to give me
Tiger's Milk through a straw.
Judie Aronson:
Jason in our filmwas played by Ted White.
And his way
of keeping the character
was kind of separating himself
from everybody else.
l don't remember really him having
a conversation with anybody.
l actually turned it down
to begin with,
After l accepted it, l did go down
and rent two of the ''Jasons,''
and l watched Jason itself,
how he moved and so forth.
And l felt l'd like to play him
a little bit different.
l'd like for him
to move a little bit different.
Another way of doing it
would be the fast move,
to move faster,
and that's how l portrayed him.
That's what l wanted to do
with him.
Even when l was in full costume,
makeup, everything,
l stayed away
from the cast completely.
l'd sit by myself on the set.
l just stayed away
from everybody.
And l tried to keep in character
as much as possible.
l liked the mystique
of being by myself,
not being close to anybody.
The scene upstairs where
they hit me over the head
with a television set,
little did l know that that
TV set was gonna stay on my head.
l had no idea where l was.
l couldn't see out of that thing.
lt was just a hand feeling
for the stairway.
You know, l was offered
l could have done either one of them
and l turned 'em down.
l'm sorry now
that l did turn them down.
Morga:
ln ''5,'' l actuallyplayed an impostor of Jason,
and l did have a couple moments
where l did
play the apparition
of Jason himself,
where those were supposedly
different Jason characters.
l just played Jason
through the whole movie.
ln the film, obviously,
they had to distinguish in some way
so they used the blue
for the marks on the mask
for the impostor Jason,
where when l did the actual Jason
l was wearing the real mask
with the red marks on it.
The makeup with this particular
character wasn't too intense.
The Jason character, though,
was a pullover mask
with the face cut out.
All they had to do
was darken my eyes
and then put the hockey mask
over it.
lt's really not in the script.
Any motivation--
there isn't any.
So l felt Roy was a little disturbed
to begin with.
The first time l put on
the green jumpsuit
and the boots
and l zipped them up,
l looked at myself in the mirror
and l thought, ''ls this me?''
Bartalos:
One of the exciting things for me
was the creation of Jason's mask.
So we took a hockey mask
and kind of customized it.
We basically redesigned
some of the ventilation holes.
We created basically
a new positive.
From the positive, we made
and from that,
created what's called a buck,
a heavy-duty cement wedge that
on the top
of it has the veneer
of the hockey mask
At that point,
using a real heavy duty plastic,
we did what's called
vacuforming.
The vacuforming draws apart
and we pull it out and bang,
we get Jason's mask.
C.J. Graham:
When we portrayed it,he got stronger.
Every opportunity
enhanced his knowledge
of killing or his strength.
Every time he was shot and put down,
he came back stronger the next time.
You know, Tom was very adamant.
He did not want a machine on stage.
When you were on set,
he wanted to make sure
there was some human contact
and people could relate to it.
Jason just is indestructible.
When you put the costume on,
you really project it, and the projection had
to be through the body--
Just a simplistic little movement
would create fear.
As soon as the mask
comes down,
it's very simple
to get into the character.
Nice thing about it
is you get to kill 17, 18 people,
you don't go to prison.
Buechler:
Every scar, every rip, every tear
that Jason ever had was
in the Jason
that we created for ''Part Vll.''
As far as playing the character,
l wanted to just do what felt natural.
My goal was
to just add some more life
to the character,
even though he is kind of a zombie.
People ask me, ''Why does
the makeup change so much
from movie to movie? The hockey mask
changes and everything else.''
Basically, it's because it's
a different makeup-effects person
who designs it.
''Part Vll,''
the makeup was real extensive,
many pieces.
lt took about three
and a half hours a day.
lt was hard to work in,
but fantastic makeup.
Uber Jason--
it was an entire
one-piece suit
that did have a zipper
in the back, but very well concealed.
On the suit,
with the arm and the leg
that had the metallic pieces.
l still love the design
of that Uber Jason mask.
He brought a lot to the role.
no matter what movie he was in,
you could tell Kane's Jason
from other people's Jason.
Having Kane Hodder
play Jason four times
really established him
as Jason.
l was a little leery,
because a lot of the feedback
the fans were putting out there
was negative, l think,
in the beginning.
But then when the movie
came out,
it became very very positive.
They were big shoes,
but l'm a big guy.
he showed up on the set,
the first night we shot him,
and l turned around,
and there he was in full glory.
l mean, his boots were
like this thick,
and then you put on
everything else that he's wearing
and he was 6'8''.
l'm not kidding you,
he scared the hell out of me.
My portrayal of Jason
showed another side
that you don't normally get to see.
ln ''Freddy vs. Jason,''
you see him actually interact
with his mother,
and you see him confronted by fears.
l just went back
to my childhood,
and l think l thought
a lot about Frankenstein--
not really alive,
but not really dead.
Even if you look at the movements,
the walk and stuff like that,
of Frankenstein.
Even though people think
he just kind of stands there
and lumbers along
with his machete,
you have to feel
that there's a physical force
that could actually be as evil
and as powerful as he is.
Ew! Sorry, buddy.
l hope it was over quickly.
The truth is,
like this guy,
most people don't survive
their encounter
with our murderous mongoloid.
Still, there have been a few
that gave Jason quite a headache.
You know, the people that insist
on not going down without a fight.
lt's a small group,
but they certainly gave Jason
a big run for his money.
Or his machete.
So whether it's Alice or it's Ginny
or it's Chris or any of these girls
who make it to the end, they usually
have some common characteristics.
The most important
is their chastity,
their purity.
They're generally not there
to just party.
